Not bad. You seem to have some talent. I suggest trying making some sprites.

Lol@the back hand. It looks more like a fin or something. You shouldn't rush it, just take it bit by bit.

The finished dragon in the first post is absolutley great!

I really wished you used your work to bump up the "Your Creations" topic.

Any ways your ending dragon is great! Are you using paint with a mouse?

Number 1 pixeling rule: Never save images as .jpg. You'll screw yourself if you don't have backups. I'm not sure what it was that messed up the dog/ghost picture, but it got blurred :(.
Keep at it, the dragon is a good basic sketch. After that you just need to do AA, dithering, and some burning knights ; D

It's not blurred at all, nor is it saved as a .jpg.

Do you have enlarged text on? If you do, that's probably it. Enlarging text enlarges pictures and blurs them too.

You still have to finish the wing?  Looks like you drew only half of it going by the reference picture.

Probably just saved it as a .jpg then resaved it as a .png, anyways since it's just black and white with the blur gray patches, open it in a paint program raise the contrast till it's black and white again.

I'm not sure what you all are talking about. The images he posted seems to have gone thew no lossy compression at all.

Make sure your browser is not zoomed in.

No it's not zoomed in, if you can't see the light gray spots on the ghost/ dog picture then copy and paste it into paint and try to recolor the white to red with the 'fill with color' tool.

you're right, i didn't scale the wing correctly,  made it too small >.< crap

btw the reason the first image is messed up, is in fact that i had first saved it as a jpeg on accident, then saved as a png, i noticed the spots when i was editing the dog.. and realized what caused it.

The host website could've registered the image as a .jpeg, if he hadn't saved it himself. These don't count as pixel art, as they are not refined nor cleaned up - More like a doodle done in MS paint. Though they are neat, none the less. :)

The dragon's head bothers me... It looks like it has a sever underbite.... Other than that.. keep at it
